Russian military advisers have not left Syria - Gen. Makarov

MOSCOW. Aug 28 (Interfax-AVN) - Russian military advisers have not left Syria, Russian Armed Forces General Staff Chief Gen. Nikolai Makarov said.

"Why are you so worried about Syria? All of our plans remain in force. No one has run away. All of them are working as usual," Makarov said on Tuesday, answering a question from Interfax-AVN.

"It is too early to put any full stops and say that we have run away [from Syria]," he said.
